SCHOOL CARNIVAL
Pupils, their Teachers and Assistants
Experts in Amputating People
from their Money Without
Pain
The -carnival given by the scholars
and pupils of the Ocala High School
and a number of their friends. Friday
afternoon and evening, was the most
satisfactory event of its kind that
every occurred here. The young folks
laised a good-sized -.sum of money,
and while their friends would have
gladly given it to them just to see
them pleased, they gave .good value
in return. So carnival coming in
from the 'outside could have given a
tenth of the satisfaction and close
personal interest as this given by our
school children.
The fun began with the parade
around the courthouse square and
some of the principal streets. Long
before it hove in sight, the square
was crowded with expectant people,
but it was worth waiting for. Fol Following
lowing Following was the order of the proces procession:

Miss Ullaine. Barnett, queen, and
Fred WTiner, king, preceded by their
heralds, Claude Barnett and J. W.
Crosby Jr.
The queen's attendants, most fas fascinatingly
cinatingly fascinatingly attired.
A Japanese car filled with beauti beautiful
ful beautiful Japanese maidens.
The freshman band under the di direction
rection direction of Bennie Borden, which must
be mentioned "for the lack of har harmony
mony harmony displayed."
There were many cars of clever
clowns, a minstrel carand a car of
French dolls.
Numerous clowns on bicycles
brought up the rear.
The parade cut corners with reck reckless
less reckless disregard of the traffic law, but
the cops only grinned.
Some minutes after this first par
ade came a notable procession of j
fairies, goblins.. clowns, historical
celebrities and other notable on foot.
They had all the interest of the first!
section, lacking only its' speed. j
The parade ended at the Ocala i

Robert Hall and Walter Troxler
were at the gates, while Reese Hunni Hunni-cutt'with
cutt'with Hunni-cutt'with an attractive dump wagon
conveyed the sightseers over the
grounds, intelligently describing the
different attractions, some of which
were as follows:
' At the first tent was Miss Cornelia
Dozier as a hypnotist. Miss Cornelia
sure was scone hypnotist. Any young
man who looks into her eyes will do
what he is told to do. Barking for her
vigorously was Miss Mildred Crosby,
whose silvery voice had a dark brown
velvet note imparted to it bythe
megaphone.
There were several fortune tellers
on the grounds. Among them Mrs.
Minnie A. Bostick. The old-timers
kept away from Mrs. Bostick. They
feared she would read their palms too
well. Miss Rinehart, one of our win winter
ter winter visitors was another skilled reader
of palms In a third tent was Miss
Gladys Farris, whose cards told love lovely
ly lovely fortunes at a quarter a fortune.
Those who had three different for fortunes
tunes fortunes told them should not worry
they should believe the best one, or
the best in all three.
Besides, there was "Mystery," Mrs.
L, J. Knight, who had an authentic
telegram right off 'the wires for each
person present.
The curiosities were most amusing.
As Blue Beard's Wives, Misses Irene
Cam, Edith Edwards and Elizabeth
Wetherbee were certainly cleverly got gotten

' lady was charming and Annie Had Had-socl

girl. John Cook, the tall man, was
one of the best features. He directed
- the greatest swimming match in the
world two matches. The wild animal
show was as good as any of its kind
that has ever visited Ocala.
The tea room was one of the most
popular attractions. Delicious salads,
sandwiches and other delicacies were
served under the supervision of Miss
Eugenia Fuller, assisted by Miss
Rhoda Thomas, Miss Marie Mathews
and Miss Elizabeth Bennett.
Two huge and most tempting look looking

HIS MOTHER SAVED HIM
The jurors before whom Clarence
Longford was tried did not do their
full duty.
They brought in a verdict of "guilty
of murder in the first degree with a
recommendation to mercy."
They should have left off the rec
ommendation to mercy.
Clarence Langford was guilty of the
nmrder of J. J. Guthrey, or he was
not.
If he was guilty, he deserved no
mercy. He showed no mercy and
should have received no mercy. His
crime was one of the most wicked and
cinel ever committed by a white man
in Marion county.
If he was not guilty, he should have
been set set.
The recommendation that saved his
neck may cost other men their lives.
It adds weight to the belief that no
white man can be convicted of murder
in Marion county. It was a much
worse crime than that for which Joe
Rice was strangled to death a few
months ago.
And yet, we cannot blame th
jurors.
Had we been on the jury, we would
have acquiesced in the verdict. We
could not have consented to bring in
any other.
And why?
Because of his mother.
Langford had good lawyers. He
might as well have been defended by
a tyro just admitted to the bar. His
lawyers did not, could not, obtain the
recommendation of mercy from the
jury
His mother saved him.
She sat by him thru the trial, hang hanging
ing hanging on every word of the judge, the
witnesses and the lawyers, studying
the face of every juror as intently as
a Christian low in spirit scan3 the
type of holy writ. Every accusation
or word of testimony against her boy
sent her heart lower and lower until
of hope for his acquittal there was
none, and for his life but a tiny gleam.
And every juror, when he left the
court room knew that if he came back
a party to a death sentence, he would
bring to that mother's face a look
that would haunt him as long as he
lived.
He couldn't endure the thought. No
again will get a chance to lead a man
off in the dark and shoot him down,
and his next attempt at murder may
cause his own death And if he should
commit a crime in a far country,
where his mother wras not present at
the trial, to plead to the jury with
anguished face and tear-filled eyes,
there might not be any mercy for him.
He should go quietly to the peni
tentiary and begin serving his sen
tence. "He should do his duties quick
ly and humbly, hoping for peaceful
freedom at some far distant day. He
should thank God for his mother eve
ry hour of his waking life and keep
her years of sacrifice and suffering
ever before the eyes of his mind. For
if he ever sees heaven it will be be
cause his mother's prayers and tears
open the gates for him.
This murder of Guthrey. and its at
tendant circumstances should be- a
lesson to us all. We can't make a
jest of law-breaking, we can't stand
back and see wayward boys going to
the devil unchecked, without suffering
ourselves. Every man must be his
brother's keeper, or civilization will
revert to anarchy. The law of statute
or the law of club and fang must rule.
Thf demons of lust, cruelty and av avarice,
arice, avarice, the appetites of the swine, we
must cast out or they will drag us
down.

CLARK DOES HIS BEST FOR
CASTOR BEAN CLAIMANTS
Editor Star: As so many of our
people engaged in raising castor
beans for the government and lost
money thereby, Congress has made
provision for settlement to be made
with the men to the end that their
Insses may be minimized. While these
settlements are in process, I am re receiving
ceiving receiving numbers of letters from peo people
ple people inquiring as to when they may
expect final adjustment and on ac
count of this condition, I am handing
you herewith copy of a letter just re received
ceived received from the office of the director,
air service, war department, which I
wish you would print for the infor information
mation information of our people.
Frank Clark.
Washington, Feb. 19.
Every great war is followed by a
period of restlessness, idleness, ex extravagance
travagance extravagance and speculation.
It is the irony of fate that at the
, very time when the needs of the
world are greatest, industry falters,
production is at a slackened pace and
its meager results are wasted with
prodigal hands. We are astonished to
see thousands of people, including
some business men who have lived in
dustrious and frugal lives, accumulat
ing property by honest industry and
economy, who are suddenly possessed
and obsessed by the idea that they can
get along without these old-fashioned
virtues at the very time when they are
most needed. The mania for specula
tion takes hold of them and they
plunge, only to find in the end that
they have exchanged the fruits of
years of toil for scraps of paper. How
they wish their worthless stocks wrere
government bonds, savings stamps or
savings bank accounts!
Beware of the fatal mania of spec speculation!
ulation! speculation! Avoid it as you would avoid
a pestilence. Study the secret of good
investment with compound interest.
Remember that economy is a magic
which turns labor into capital and
that honest industry and economy are
the sure road to independence.
In the end the world will hdhor
those who serve it best and no man
can serve the world by speculation.
Beware of worthless oil stocks and
get-rich-quick concerns offering one
hundred per cent profit in a few
months.
Buy war savings stamps.
Start a savings bank account.
Buy liberty bonds.
